SANTA ANA - Friday Night Boardgame Meetup

Join us at IHOP for a most excellent evening of gaming and great food! Enjoy playing a selection of modern board and card games! No experience necessary to attend!

We meet twice a month, every 1st and 3rd Friday. This is the first meetup of the month. A small contribution ($1 suggested) is appreciated, but not required.

GAME SELECTION:

Game selection depends entirely on what is brought by attendees and made available to share. Consider bringing your favorites to teach and play with others. This is optional, but we encourage attendees to place games on a back table (game pool) where others can borrow them for the duration of the event. Please take care of any borrowed games including the box and any components. You may announce in the comments below which games you plan to bring and/or any that you would like to try out.

Absolutely no playtesting or promotion! For a special exception, please message the event host.

VENUE:

We will have an entire wing of the restaurant reserved for our group. Please be mindful that this is a business which allows us to play without charging admission and that it only works for them as long as it makes business sense. Kindly patronize by buying a beverage or meal at each visit. The menu can be found on their website here: IHOP menu

IHOP has extended their hours and now closes at Midnight. However, the restaurant would still prefer if we can wrap up by 11PM so please complete final turns and cleanup by that time if possible.

NO OUTSIDE FOOD OR DRINKS ALLOWED! No smoking or vaping!

ARRIVAL TIME AND CANCELLATIONS:

Show up any time you like-- but expect that if you're late it is more likely that you will have to wait before you can get into a game.

This event may fill up, in which case there will be a waiting list. If you RSVP and later find that you are unable to attend, please update your status accordingly at least one hour prior to the meet time so that people in the queue have time to make their way to the venue.

Please DO NOT show up if you are not on the "going" list as seats are limited.

We will go through the sign-in sheet afterward and mark "no shows". Three or more "no shows" in the last 3 months for any All Aboard Games event will get you pushed to the back of the waitlist.

PHOTOGRAPHY:

Please be aware that photos of the games in progress and attendees may be taken during the event for promotional use. If you would prefer not to be included in the picture, feel free to inform us and we will attempt as best as possible to exclude you from the image.
